Chapter 6814
Understanding
The proprietress's eyes were filled with fear and helplessness, and her body trembled slightly, like a frightened fawn.
Her hair was disheveled, and her clothes were torn in several places, making her look quite disheveled.
Xiao Chen looked again at the smashed tables and the mess scattered all over the floor. The tables and chairs that were originally neatly arranged were now overturned, with pieces everywhere, and spilled drinks and food on the ground, making it a complete mess.
His gaze finally settled on the proprietress, whose face was deathly pale and who was still trembling.
The proprietress felt his gaze, raised her head slightly, her eyes filled with pleading and gratitude.
Looking at her, Xiao Chen felt a surge of pity. He decided to seek justice for the landlady and not let these bullies escape punishment so easily.
"The losses weren't significant, but people suffered." Xiao Chen spoke slowly, his voice calm and even, without the slightest fluctuation, yet it seemed to possess an undeniable penetrating power, piercing straight into the hearts of everyone present.
The tone was as if stating a simple fact, yet it left no room for doubt.
“She!” Xiao Chen pointed firmly to the proprietress standing to the side, her face still bearing scars and her expression timid. “She is my friend.”
From now on, anyone who dares to lay a finger on her is going against me, Xiao Chen. A sharp glint flashed in his eyes, like lightning in the cold night, sending chills down one's spine.
"Medical expenses, mental distress damages, and lost wages will be compensated tenfold."
If there are any further questions, you will be held solely responsible.
"Understand?" Xiao Chen's cold gaze fell on Ma Zhenxiong, his eyes seemingly able to see through his heart, making him dare not conceal or be perfunctory in the slightest.
"Understand!
Understand!
"I understand!" Ma Zhenxiong nodded frantically, as if under a spell, his head bobbing like a pestle being pounded, afraid that if he was even a second too slow, he would displease Xiao Chen.
His forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, which slid down his cheeks and dampened his collar.
"ten times!
Do not!
Twenty times!
I'll arrange for the best hospital right away!
The best doctor!
Let the boss's wife enjoy the best medical services.
All subsequent treatments and recuperation will be covered by my family!
I guarantee she'll be satisfied!
Mr. Xiao, please rest assured!
"I will take good care of the boss's wife, just like I would take care of my own mother!" He wanted to swear an oath to show his sincerity, hoping that Xiao Chen would let him and his daughter go.
Xiao Chen's gaze slowly swept over the jewelry store, which was now a mess. The once luxurious and neatly arranged store was now in complete chaos.
The counter was smashed to pieces, jewelry was scattered all over the floor, shimmering with a desolate light under the lamplight; tables and chairs were overturned, some were broken in two; the floor was a mess, full of broken glass and spilled drinks.
He frowned slightly and said, "It's bad luck that the shop was smashed like this."
The property will be restored to its original condition, and all losses will be compensated at three times the highest market price.
We will resume business today.
"Understand?" His voice remained calm, but carried an undeniable authority.
"Understand!
Understand!
"I understand!" Ma Zhenxiong continued nodding frantically, his head almost breaking off.
His face was plastered with a fawning smile, a smile more unsightly than a grimace. "Three times!"
I contacted the renovation team immediately!
Do not!
I will personally supervise!
Make sure everything is restored to normal before dark!
It's even better than before!
They renovated the jewelry store as if it had never happened.
All losses will be compensated three times the amount!
Every penny is a lot!
"Mr. Xiao, just you wait and see!" He felt his heart bleeding. The compensation was no small sum; it would be enough to make him feel the pinch for a long time.
But at this moment, he knew in his heart that problems that money could solve were not problems at all. As long as he could save his and his daughter's lives and protect the Ma family's assets, he was willing to spend any amount of money.
Xiao Chen's eyes remained calm and still, as if he were talking about something trivial, as if everything was under his control.
However, when he saw Ma Mengmeng's eyes, which, though disheveled, still held resentment and unwillingness, a sense of disgust welled up in his heart.
This woman still doesn't understand where she went wrong and is still thinking about revenge; she's hopeless.
Xiao Chen also found her best friend Wang Sha, whose expression—still shaken but unable to hide her schadenfreude—very off-putting.
They were like two clowns, playing a disgraceful role in this farce.
Just then, Xiao Chen's eyes suddenly narrowed, like a cold star in a cold night, radiating a chilling light.
He stared intently at Ma Mengmeng and Wang Sha, his gaze seemingly trying to see right through them.
Ma Mengmeng felt uneasy under his gaze, her body trembled involuntarily, and she subconsciously took a step back.
Wang Sha was also frightened and turned pale, lowering her head and not daring to meet Xiao Chen's gaze.
Xiao Chen thought to himself that these two women would definitely not let this go, and might even do something underhanded behind his back.
He decided to teach them a lesson they couldn't afford to mess with.
A chilling, bone-chilling, terrifying killing intent, seemingly emanating from the deepest depths of hell, surged forth without warning.
This killing intent, like a tangible cold wave, erupted instantly from Xiao Chen with overwhelming force!
The chill seemed to penetrate one's soul, causing everyone who felt it to shiver uncontrollably.
The temperature in the entire barbecue restaurant seemed to drop ten degrees in an instant. The warm space, which had been filled with the aroma of cooking, suddenly became as cold as an ice cellar.
Ma Zhenxiong, who was nearby, was the first to feel this terrifying pressure.
He felt as if his heart was being gripped tightly by an invisible hand, each beat becoming incredibly difficult, as if it would stop at any moment.
The chill ran up his spine, making the hairs on his body stand on end, and cold sweat instantly soaked his back.
He felt his breathing become difficult, as if something was blocking his throat, and he was almost suffocating!
His legs trembled uncontrollably, almost causing him to lose his balance, as if he were trapped in an inescapable nightmare.
"Since you understand all this..." Xiao Chen's voice suddenly turned cold, like an ice pick hitting a hard ground, making a crisp yet piercing sound.
The voice carried a chilling majesty and command, as if it were a judgment from heaven, leaving no room for disobedience.
"Then get to work right now, immediately!"
Then…” He paused slightly, his gaze sweeping over Ma Zhenxiong like a sharp blade, each word striking Ma Zhenxiong’s heart like a heavy hammer, “Take your men and get out of my sight!”
immediately!
Immediately! (End of Chapter)
